Upgrading is easy! Commence RM automatically converts the data when a Commence 4.0,
4.1, or 2000 database is first opened in Commence RM. After installing the software you
first open the server, and then each client. Data Conversion will be completed
automatically and your workgroup is ready to use.
For customers with v3.1, v3.0 and prior, you will first need to upgrade your data to a
later version. We can provide assistance to help you through the data conversion process.
You can install Commence RM 2.1 to a different directory if you wish, preserving the
old version on your machine. This may be useful if you want to evaluate Commence RM 2.1
prior to upgrading.
Commence has a policy to support the current version of the product and one prior
version. As such, Commence 2000 has reached end of life and will no longer be sold or
supported after October 31st. Those customers on a support plan with Commence 2000 will of
course be supported through to the expiration date of their agreement.
